Hello -

I am currently using the Cambodia 2014 DHS survey and am attempting to calculate the maternal mortality by provincial region in STATA. I could really use some help!

Dear User, Provincial data not available due to confidentiality issues. Thank you!

Would it be possible to calculate state-level MMR figures for Nigeria? I can't imagine confidentiality would be an issue at the state level. If it is possible, what is the formula? I assume it includes the sister mortality index list of variables.
Thanks.

Dear User, a response from Senior Data Processing Expert, Guillermo Rojas:

The sample for MMR in all DHS surveys is only representative at the National level.
